[Virtual] Ooky Spooky Nights with the Museum Staff + Friends!
/with the Museum Staff + FRIENDS!
A Halloween Special
Are you ready for an "ooky spooky" art-filled Halloween celebration, the likes of which only the Polk Museum of Art could present?
Join your favorite Museum staff members as they entertain and educate you with ghoulish, spooky, and oh-so-strange stories inspired by some of the most famous pieces of art throughout history.
Shake in your boots as your haunted host Dr. Alex Rich, Executive Director and Chief Curator, regales you with the dreadful tale behind The Scream by Edvard Munch, be entranced by the frightening story of Saturn Devouring His Son by Francisco Goya, and be shocked when you learn how the ghost of Abraham Lincoln visited his wife in a photograph. Every artwork has its own frightening story to tell, and there's never been a better time for a ghoulish journey into the past than All Hallow's Eve.
So grab your popcorn and dim the lights: it's about to get ooky spooky.
